Default One Month worth of Mods...

I acquired my mustang almost a month ago and and its almost at 3000km. I think its come a long way and was out snapping some pics after mounting the new rims and though I would share a couple pics that turned out okay.

Real nice. Do you plan to add some lowering springs? I think that would a good choice for your next mod.

I agree, lower it a bit and add some window tint (if not already done). Sweet ride!

I love the lip on those wheels but it would look alot better with a black lip rather than silver

Eibach sportljnes was the first thing I ordered but haven't got around to installing them yet. I'm waiting to have the 3.73s installed so it's not so hard for the shop to get it on their hoist.

I'm thinking of replacing the corral pony grill with the matching billet upper grill.

Looks real nice!What size tires did you go with and what is the offset on the wheels?
I think the silver lip looks way better than the black would of.Breaks things up somewhat.

Big fan of the Decklid. See you have the lower grille... how was the install on that? Difficult?

The install was simple once i stopped trying to take the stock grill off. There is just no room in the lower bumper to get a blade screwdriver in there at the right angle to get the clips off.

You do have to drill 2 small holes in the factory lower grill.

If I did it again I could probably do it in less than 10min now.

I absolutely love those wheels. But then, I grew up in the five spoke era. Cragar rims were the mag of choice at the time.
